Extensions built for Long Eaton homes

Long Eaton sits on the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire border, and its housing tells the story of the town’s lace and railway history. You will find long rows of Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Derby Road and Tamworth Road, roomy 1930s semis on the wider avenues, and modern developments spreading out towards the M1 and the Trent. Each of these home types calls for a different approach, and we tailor every design to suit the property and the street.

The older terraces near the centre often have narrow rear yards, so a well-planned single-storey rear extension can transform a cramped kitchen into an open-plan living space without losing much garden. The interwar semis usually have room down the side for a side extension or a two-storey addition, while the newer estate homes suit larger wrap around and double-storey projects. We survey each property carefully and advise on what will add the most space and value.

Everything we build in Long Eaton is submitted through Erewash Borough Council, and we manage the planning and building control paperwork so you do not have to chase it. From the first sketch to the final coat of paint, you deal with one local team.

They extended the back of our terrace off Derby Road and it has completely changed how we use the house. Tidy team, clear pricing and they sorted all the Erewash planning for us.

We had a side extension on our 1930s semi near Sawley. The finish is spot on and they kept us updated the whole way through. Would recommend to anyone in Long Eaton.

A full double-storey extension on our home towards Wilsthorpe. Big job done on time and on budget, and the neighbours were kept happy too. Genuinely local and reliable.
